"Stay strong Eves," Steve advising. "I'll be home every other months and then after six months I'll be back."
She hugs him tightly, "I know, but I love you so much and I can't imagine loosing you."
"You're not gonna loose me, I promise," he replies as he plays with my hands.
"All soldiers, have to board now!" Somebody shouts.
They both pull away, Evie balling and Steve teary eyes. Steve wipes away Evie's tears, "goodbye sunshine. I love you."
"Don't say goodbye," she cries. "That means you're not coming back and I'll never see you again. Say see you later."
He looks at her and smiles weakly, "see you later Evie."
"See you later Stevie," she chokes out.
He looks at me and I run into his arms sobbing, "we've been through a hell of a lot, we'll get through this too. I love you Stevie and I'll see you soon."
"Thanks you Dylan," he whispers.
"For what?" I ask.
"Being you," he smiles as we break away he also wipes my tears. "Be the strong girl I know you are."
"I'll help Evie too," I laugh sadly.
"Thanks," he smiles as he goes over to Soda and so on.
After a few minutes Johnny hugs me, "see ya later Dylan. I love you."
"I love you too Johnnycake. You gotta stay strong out there okay?" At this point I break out into tears. "For me. For yourself. For the gang. For Emily. And for Tyler. Ya hear me Johnnycakes? You're one tough guy and you can get through this."
"I don't know," he shrugs. "I'm gonna try so hard though. I'm gonna fight like my life depends on it because, it does. I have a little boy that I have to raise and a girl I have to purpose to. I'm gonna make it through this."
"That's the spirit Johnny," I smile weakly hugging him once more. "I love you to death Johnnycake and if Soda can do it, so can you."
"I know I can Dyl," he replies. "I'll see ya soon."
I look at him and smile, "I'll see ya soon."
I watch every step Johnny and Steve take counting them until they get to the bus. I look at Soda and just burst into tears running into his arms, "it isn't fair Soda. I just got you back and now I'm loosing them. It ain't fair."
"I know baby girl," he soothes. "I know, but they're tough greasers. They'll make it through this. I did."
"I know," I frown. "But you're not Johnny."
Sorry for the short chapter. The book is almost over which is so sad! I feel like I know Dylan and the gang including the girls by now. I can't believe it's almost over. I didn't think I could write a three part series, but I did. Well I love you all because, you've read so much of this series if you're here. Stay gold. Do it for Johnny.
